  • Page 3: Safety Instructions

    Safety Instructions These safety instructions are intended to prevent hazardous situations and/or equipment damage. These instructions indicate the level of potential hazard with the labels of “Caution,” “Warning” or “Danger.” They are all important notes for safety and must be followed in addition to International Standards (ISO/IEC) , and other safety regulations.
  • Page 4 Safety Instructions Caution We develop, design, and manufacture our products to be used for automatic control equipment, and provide them for peaceful use in manufacturing business. Use in non-manufacturing business is not covered. Products we manufacture and sell cannot be used for the purpose of transactions or certification specified in the Measurement Act.
  • Page 5 Design precautions Warning ! 1. Actuator drive When an actuator, such as a cylinder, is to be driven take appropriate measures to prevent potential danger caused by actuator operation. 2. Maintenance space When installing the products, allow access for maintenance. 3.
  • Page 6 3. Do not wipe the product using chemicals. Piping Caution ! 1. Before piping Before piping, perform air blow (flushing) or cleaning to remove any cutting chips, cutting oil, dust, etc. from the piping. 2. Piping to product When piping to the product, refer to the symbols and labels on the product to avoid mistakes in the position of the supply port, etc.

If excessive carbon powder is generated by the compressor, it may adhere to the inside of the valves and cause malfunction. 4. Grease is applied to the inner parts of the valve. Grease may enter on the downstream side of the valve.
  • Page 8 Specific Product Precautions for Mechanical Valve Design precautions Warning ! 1. Cannot be used for sealing pressure. Since VM1000 is a poppet type valve, fluid flows backwards when the pressure on port 2 rises. Since the valve is subject to a little amount of air leakage, it cannot be used for applications such as holding pressure (including vacuum).
  • Page 9 This could damage the mechanical valve itself and lead to equipment malfunction. Refer to Chapter 8, "Mechanical Operating Conditions" in this Operation Manual for the main precautions. Caution ! 1. After operating for a long time, it will take some time for the valve to restart as the resistance between the seal and the parts increases.
  • Page 10: Application

    2. Application VM1000 mechanical valve is applied to a pneumatics air pressure control circuit in a machine tool, a small-size industrial machine, and others as a signal valve. For actuator types, a roller lever for mechanical operation, and push button and flip toggle for manual operation are available.
